Detective Chief Inspector Paddy Meyers of the Surrey and Sussex Major Crime Team, who is leading the investigation, said he believes Mr Beblot was in an altercation with his assailant before being attacked at around 5am.

He was then found at the junction of Chertsey Road and Chobham Road, near the British Heart Foundation (BHF) store in Woking.

Two men arrested in relation to the incident have been released facing no further action.
